Ciuniurumauten. Welcome.
Each of the communities in our service area is home to a federally-recognized Tribe, whose governing council has authorized YKHC to provide health services on behalf of the federal Indian Health Service (IHS).
YKHC’s healthcare delivery system includes community clinics, sub-regional clinics in five of the area’s larger communities, a regional hospital, dental and optometry services, behavioral health services, counseling and treatment for individuals with substance use disorders, health promotion and disease prevention programs, and environmental health services.
The Yukon-Kuskokwim Health Corporation has earned the Joint Commission's Gold Seal of Approval.
You'll want to check out this next video in the "At YKHC" series, which highlights the work of our remote maintenance worker (RMW) team.
RMWs Allan, Bruce, Nick, Willie, and Bob live and work across the YK region, supporting village water operators in maintaining and repairing their water and wastewater systems.
Whether responding to emergencies or providing hands-on training, these experienced RMWs help communities keep their water systems running smoothly, which helps keep people healthier.
Our "At YKHC" video series is designed to highlight some of the many awesome, hardworking people and programs that help promote health in our region. View more videos in the “At YKHC” series here: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLT7CMrjzHDv9Ug4leev5LkYe-vx071Brw
